Jev Plays StarCraft

Jev completed the Strongarm mission in original StarCraft shareware using structured state and mouse-and-keyboard actions.

How it uses Jev

The harness pauses the original StarCraft shareware game, turns the currently visible owned/game state into structured observations, asks Jev for Economy and Army command choices, and executes the selected commands using ordinary mouse and keyboard input.

App workflow

  1. Observe the paused mission

    Read structured game state while the game is paused; enemy positions enter the observation only when visible.

  2. Request economy and army actions

    Present the relevant state to Jev at separate economy and combat decision opportunities.

  3. Execute the selected command

    Translate the chosen action into ordinary mouse or keyboard input and resume the game.

  4. Record and verify the run

    Capture frames and decision probabilities, then check the committed victory outcome and victory dialog.

Why it is interesting

It applies typed decisions in a bounded real-time strategy mission and publishes a verified run with actual action probabilities, decision records, and a visually reviewed victory screen. The README cautions that one successful run is not a win-rate benchmark.
